Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The purpose of the current study is to assess the role of pyloric drainage procedure on altering the reflux effect on the quality of life in patients who underwent esophagectomy. Researchers hypothesize that the patients who underwent minimally invasive esophagectomies without pyloric drainage experience less reflux symptoms and therefore have a better quality of life.
